Guidance

Fire alarms - use of buildings when they are out of service

This guidance has been provided to help make decisions on the actions which should be taken following a building’s fire alarm system being out of service ( (e.g. during maintenance or faults). Please note that buildings without a fire alarm system fitted are not covered by this guidance.

The University takes its responsibilities for fire safety very seriously and is committed to achieving the highest possible standards. This training provides a useful tool to help managers ensure that their staff have adequate and up to date fire safety knowledge. The tutorial can be used as part of an induction for a new member of staff, or may also be used as a refresher to update the fire safety knowledge of existing staff.

On successful completion of the training, a certificate can be printed to keep as a record of training and for CPD purposes.
